Heard him with the Hi Rhythm Section in the late 80's - a great night.

Around that time saw him with the "Memphis Soul Show" aka Lynn White + Ann Peebles + David Hudson + Memphis Horns and he was still in pretty good shape back then ....

Fun to hear Lee Morgan on "forward-leaning" albums (would've been interesting to hear him in lieu of, say, Hubbard, on some of the "New Thing" Blue Note sessions)

Ornette Coleman "Ornette!" from 1961.

During my youth this was not easy to purchase, I had listened to it at a friend´s place and later bought a CD reissue with a bonus track "Keen Writers" .

I great album with Scott LaFaro on bass. The strange thing it´s much more straight ahead than other Coleman albums of that time. "Town Hall" is much more advanced. Ornette himself has much more emotion in his playing than on other occasions. Mostly he played in a very simple and diatonic manner , modulating through different keys, many of them unusual keys in jazz like D natural for example. Here he´s more chromatic and on the same time much more along with a straight ahead beat.  Ed Blackwell is fantastic on T&T.

But the best thing is the bonus track. I´ve listend to the 4 issued tracks more often and know them, but I seemed to have forgotten about the bonus track......
